Electromagnetic Fields & Waves : Fundamentals Of Engineering

Description

OVERVIEW

This core introductory-level undergraduate textbook gives electrical engineering
students a solid overview of electromagnetic fields and waves. Designed to
accommodate both one- and two-semester curricula, the book is laid out in accessible
and holistic “learning blocks” to maximize flexibility in the classroom.
Electromagnetic Fields and Waves: Fundamentals of Engineering shows how
electromagnetic fields work, how to design them, how to control their parameters,
and how to use them in real-world situations. Students will learn about electric and
magnetic fields, potentials, and energy, time-varying fields and Maxwell’s Equations,
wave propagation and polarization, transmission lines and waveguides, and much
more. Each chapter starts with an outline of learning objectives and ends with a
comprehensive summary.


KEY FEATURES
•Contains a holistic presentation of the math and physics fundamentals needed to
comprehend the material
•Presents the material with students’ realistic preparation in mind to ensure lasting
comprehension rather than being trained to carry out procedures
•Chapter material is presented with “tangential/complementary” material moved to
addenda at the end of the chapter. This allows the learners to decide which and how
much of the material in these addenda to cover
•Written by a recognized electrical engineering expert and experienced educator
